An orphan begs for mercy from a warlord but his pleas fall on deaf ears.

Warlord please
Please listen to me
I plead with you, warlord
Please stop the genocide war

Warlord please
You have waged a war
You have changed colors
You have fired rockets
They have landed on houses
One of them was ours
You have killed my father
You have made me an orphan

Warlord please
Now it is time for peace
Time to sit and talk
time for dialogue
time for reconciliation
Time to look at me
time to take care of me
As otherwise
I shall grow up in the streets
And become a warlord like you
With no hope to build a nation
But always hoping
To kill the hope of children
To create a nation of orphans
Or at best to be a horror vehicle
A raw material for the terror factory
Thereby continuing the cycle of war

Warlord please
For the sake of me
Would you stop the war
Or you have no heart
For anything more than war

Warlords are born deaf, with two tongues talking different of each other and without a soul. The desert are their Hell and their followers their demons.
Not even the Devil can reason with them after Allah disowned them.

Abdi-Noor,

What can I say about this moving piece, but may the Lord soon grant us all peace. This is just a little too true.

Mary
